Pack it in... Bring on McEichel

Well after watching the Canes get dismantled today by the Flyers, I've officially decide to pack it in and so have the Canes as they are tied for dead last in the NHL with Edmonton (who we played just a decade ago for the Stanleu Cup).

Contrary to Peter Karmanos's belief that this team is good enough to win the whole thing, the Canes simply aren't a good hockey team.

Their #1 center is an enigmatic player that beats to his own drum (E. Staal), then there is the million dollar Russian who has one goal (Semin), the hobbled #2 center (J. Staal), the garbage goal machine first line winger (Tlusty), a midget (Gerbe), a ginger (Nash/who has supeisingly played well), a couple of swedes that are pissed off they're in Raleigh (Lindholm/Rask), a concussion waiting to happen (Skinner), a few AHL forwards (Terry/Boychuk), and a few forwards that shouldn't even be playing in the NHL (Malone/McClement), a dude whose name sounds like a nasal allergy (Nestrasil), a third liner who somehow ends up on the first line at random times (Dwyer) team USA (Faulk), Suh-care-uh (Sekera), two dudes who were traded for each other (Gleason/Liles), a guy who constantly scores on his own net (Hainsey), a few guys that take penalties at the worst opportuned time (Harrison/Bellemore), a dude named after the greatest athlete ever (Jordan), and two goalies that have swapped places since last year (Ward/Khudobin).

That sounds like a team that can win it all?!?!

Bring on McEichel!!!

Connor McDavid: 18 GP, 16 goals, 35 assists, 51 points, +34, 26 PIM

Jack Eichel: 16 GP, 8 goals, 19 assists, 27 points, +21, 10 PIM

That's it for your public service announcement.

I'm assuming you guys have been paying close attention to your potential future Hurricanes at the World Jr's?

I expected a lot more from Eichel

Yeah I thought McDavid looked good and I was really impressed with Dylan Strome.

As for our prospects I thought Tolchinsky from Russia looked good, I'm bummed that Fleury didn't make a Team Canada though.

    • We could easily pick apart yesterday’s game: dropped passes, blown coverages, bad tackling and red zone issues to name a few. But it was clear that this wasn’t the same team from earlier in the season. They fought back and hung with the champs until the end. That’s what I was excited to see and it gives me hope that we’re on the right track.
    • I think BY played well today and exceeded expectations. I will temper future expectations as he has to string together many games of consistent quality. One game doesn’t convince me that he is a franchise QB or even a guy you want to stick with for another season. One game doesn’t erase all the negative play and limitations from the past couple of years. I hope he balls out and continues to get better but for me the verdict is still out   That said, I think he gave the team and fans hope yesterday which is a lot more than what we had when we woke up Sunday morning. 
    • He was vastly improved today and we need to see more of Bryce the rest of the season to continue evaluate him in order to decide what the heck to do with him at the end of the season. He must play at least like this and improve more from here the rest of the season in order for me to keep him. No more 123 yard passing games and want to see at least this output weekly from him. If this is Bruce improving slowly over time then Canales is even better with developing QB's than I thought he was but still too early to tell and we need to see him the rest of the way as he has at very least earned back the starting gig moving forward.
